Version 2 Replacement Remote for Velux Skylight Blinds Models: 25BG06B 45AK11B Remote WLR 100 WLR 100 50 01 WLR 160 50 01 Skylight WLR 160 50 02 & WLR 160 50 02 Skylight WLR 160500

After 12+ years of having a broken remote and being unable to open our skylight in our bathroom...THIS WORKED!! Now we are able to remove the nasty screen and clean it and breathe some fresh air. Besides the hefty price, I am very happy with this purchase. Note: It did not indicate which button to press for the skylight as it is a universal remote with many features. I just kept pressing buttons until the red light came on the motor and it started to open. Also, no additional batteries are necessary for this remote. It comes ready out of the box.UPDATE:: 2 days later I am unable to use the remote to now CLOSE the skylight. None of the buttons seem to work. HELP!!

It doesn't work and the company did not return an email inquiring how to make it work past the included instructions.

Like others struggled to find a replacement. I actually contacted Velux and they said the old remote is discontinued and to try this one from Remotes Remade. Had trouble pairing at first because the security code on our receiver had been changed. Thankfully I had a little juice left in my old remote to reset to the default security code. Once I did that, bam worked perfect. Not sure what I would have done without the old remote to reset the code though.

Did not work out of box, searched YouTube for all the videos. There was one from this retailer on how to Search and Find the device. Did that but took me 2 tries to get it to work. Has worked fine since. I will mention that in the video he noted the lights sequence on remote, mine was not the same pattern as commented. I went with the process ignoring the light sequence and it worked. It was a great relief to hear that skylight start to open!

The motor control button does not appear to operate.

Got the remote and tried it on the Skylight. I do not have the blinds, only the window. Worked just as advertised. I am glad to find a replacement for the Velux WLR 160 50 02 other than on eBay. Not sure what I would be getting on eBay, especially at the prices they were quoting.

Received unit, tried everything to get it to work, spoke with company rep 2x. After aboutb2 weeks they sent an email saying they were recalling item. So we are in the process of returning and back to where we started because noone makes this remote any longer.

Forget those hard-to-find, over-priced, vintage Velux remotes on eBay. This tiny wonder paired (pretty much straight out of the package) with my vintage Velux skylight, making it usable (open/close) again. YouTube video explains the pairing process. Don't expect any customer assistance, however.
